Runs to grab "Talking Heads" album.

Out of the darkness, into the light.

The Colossus of Rhodes

"The Colossus of Rhodes was a statue of the Greek god Helios, erected in the city of Rhodes on the Greek island of Rhodes by Chares of Lindos between 292 and 280 BC. It is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Before its destruction, the Colossus of Rhodes stood over 30 meters (107 ft) high, making it one of the tallest statues of the ancient world."

And you may say to yourself,
this is not my beautiful thread!

What's amazing about that Talking Heads record was that he got away with a song like Listening Wind, which I'm sure today would get him arrested.

Mojique sees his village from a nearby hill
Mojique thinks of days before Americans came
He sees(serves) the foreigners in growing numbers
He sees the foreigners in fancy houses
He dreams of days that he can still remember...now.

Mojique holds a package in his quivering hands
Mojique sends the package to the American man
Softly he glides along the streets and alleys
Up comes the wind that makes them run for cover
He feels the time is surely now or never...more.

The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
The dust in my head
The dust in my head
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
(Come to) Drive them away
Drive them away.

Mojique buys his equipment in the market place
Mojique plants devices through the free trade zone
He feels the wind is lifting up his people
He calls the wind to guide him on his mission
He knows his friend the wind is always standing...by.

Mojique smells the wind that comes from far away
Mojique waits for news in a quiet place
He feels the presence of the wind beside(around) him
He feels the power of the past behind him
He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him...on.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

New x-ray machines could make airport security hassle-free


Backscatter x-ray technology, a new system meant to make airport security searches easy and non-contact, brings with it concerns about privacy and effectiveness. With the multitude of issues at stake (touched upon recently by William Saletan over at Slate), we thought it was a good topic to mark the return of Shift, SCI FI Tech's regular column, and every day this week one of our new columnists will chime in with his or her take on the controversial system. First up is Peter Suciu, who wonders what all the fuss is about.

Just put the beef in to roast with roast potatoes, peas and corn and Yorkshire pudding. I'll make the gravey later.
Sorry to the vegetarians but I need some meat tonight.

Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?" - Fred Rogers

This new spider bite looks small, but is very powerful. I am very sick and my finger is very swollen. I feel like I have the flu and weird drugs of some sort  :P
The main things to remember in life are Love, Kindness, Understanding and Respect - Always make forward progress

Superficial fanny kissing friends are a dime a dozen, a TRUE FRIEND however is PRICELESS

Who Is Desdemona?

"Desdemona is a female heroine in William Shakespeare's tragedy Othello. She is the daughter of Senator Brabantio of Venice, and defies her father by secretly marrying Othello, a soldier of Moorish ancestry. Scholars are divided as to the merits and true personality of the character. Some experts believe that she is the ultimate personification of a traditional woman, ruled by her heart and loyal to her husband even as he murders her. A contradictory interpretation is that the character is a woman far ahead of her time who believes herself to be Othello's total equal, and her death is a result of a society unprepared for a feminist point of view."

Having accomplished her five hundreth post in three years,
Heather Rose has attained the rank of "FAMILY". Along with
this title, all rights and privileges afforded to one reaching such
a prestigeous social level, has been bestowed upon her.

During Ms. Heather Rose's acceptance speech, during the presentation
ceremony, held at the opulent H.R. Towers, where she received the much
coveted "Suzy", she was heard to say, "Please allow me to take this
opportunity to thank all the little people who made all of this possible,
(sniffle) YOU LOVE ME, YOU REALLY REALLY LOVE ME!"

To avoid being accused of deliberately inflating post count, let me here say something profound:


uh.. 


I'll get back to ya on that one...  :embarrassed:
Girls rule, boys drool.
If I keep a green bough in my heart, then the singing bird will come.
